A Water Line Professionals use the Pipe Genie System to replace your sewer or water lines without digging a trench or disrupting your landscaping, sidewalks or driveway!

Pipe Bursting is a technique for
replacement of existing pipes. The existing pipe, once burst, becomes the
guide path for the new pipe being installed.

This technique bursts the old pipe and in so doing displaces the fragmented
old pipe into the surrounding soil. This creates a hole of roughly the same
dimension as the original. If a larger diameter pipe is to be installed a
larger 'expanding cone' is used to increase the size of the hole. Once done,
the new pipe is pushed or pulled into position.

Pipe bursting is popular in urban areas where congestion due to existing
services sharing the same space under the surface is a problem. Bursting
must be used very carefully where sub surface crowding could put other lines
at risk due to the pressure of the bursting head.

Trenchless pipe replacement simply means
there is no requirement to dig a trench
in order to install / replace
underground pipes.

The chief benefits of
this system are time reductions, cost
efficiency and minimal damage to
landscaping. Please see our section on
water or sewer lines for the benefits and successes
and
more detailed information and examples.

A variation of this
method is called
'Pipe Slitting'
which breaks the
pipe by longitudinal
slitting.
